implements, wagons and carriages. This business was established in 1886, and the
following year the Bull & Grant Company was organized, who carried on the

to the business here. The firm is now Montgomery, Grant & Co. This company

States for wagons, plows, mowers, reapers, rakes, buggies and traction and
portable engines. They carry a full and complete stock of agricultural
machinery, wagons, carriages, etc., at their establishment, No. 233 North Los
Angeles street. They have a branch house at San Bernardino and also one at

in San Francisco until he came to Los Angeles in 1886. He understands the
business in all its details, and is an energetic, practical business man.
